Describe the structure of a soap

Chemistry
1 answer:
dangina [55]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: The Molecules Of soap are sodium or pottassium salts of long chain carboxylic acids. The ionic end of soap dissolves in water while the carbon chain dissolves in oil. The soap molecules thus form structure called micelles where one end of Molecules is towards the oil droplet while the ionic end faces outside

What is the percent of Cr in Cr2O3
IgorLugansk [536]
The percentage of Chromium in Chromium Oxide is calculated as follow,

Step 1:
           Calculate Molar mass of Cr₂O₃,
Cr = 51.99 u
O = 16 u
So,
     2(51.99) + 3(16) = 103.98 + 48 = 151.98 u

Step 2:
          Secondly divide molar mass of only chromium with total mass of Cr₂O₃ and multiply with 100.
i.e.
                   = \frac{103.98}{151.98} × 100
                   
                   = 68.41 %
So, the %age composition of chromium in chromium oxide is 68.41 %.

How do you balance a chemical equation
Dominik [7]
There should be mass balance and the charge balance between the reactants and the products

Mass balance : total no of individual atoms of each type should be balanced before and after the reaction

Charge balance : Overall charge of the reactants should be balanced with the overall charge of the products

You can balance,

1)by just looking at it

2)by Algebraic method given above or

3)by the redox method

You need to know how to get the oxidation numbers in order to use the oxidation method

PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY! MARKING BRANLIEST!
seropon [69]

Answer: oil spill, forest fire

Explanation:

The short term environmental change is a change that occur in an environment which exerts it's effect over the environment and the living beings for a short duration. The damage caused by the short term environmental change can be recovered in a short time. The oil spill and forests fire are the example of short term environmental changes.

The oil spill will reduce the abundance of the aquatic species until the oil is circulated out at the bay of the water body therefore, it is a short term environmental change.

Forests fire will remain ignited for a short period but can be destructive enough to cause damage to flora and fauna species. As time passes the reduced populations of flora and fauna can be recovered again.

Sodium metal reacts with water to produce hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide according to the chemical equation shown below.
UNO [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy change of the reaction is -361.6 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of sodium = 0.025 moles

Molar mass of sodium = 23 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.025mol=\frac{\text{Mass of sodium}}{23g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of sodium}=(0.025mol\times 23g/mol)=0.575g

We are given:

Mass of water = 100.00 g

Mass of sodium = 0.575 g

Mass of solution = 100.00 + 0.575 = 100.575 g

To calculate the amount of heat absorbed, we use the equation:

q=m\times C\times \Delta T

where,

q = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of solution = 100.575 g

C = specific heat capacity of solution = 4.18 J/g°C

\Delta T = change in temperature = (T_2-T_1)=(35.75-25.00)=10.75^oC

Putting all the values in above equation, we get:

q=100.575g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 10.75^oC=4519.34J=4.52kJ

When heat is absorbed by the solution, this means that heat is getting released by the reaction.

<u>Sign convention of heat:</u>

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

For the given chemical reaction:

2Na(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow NaOH(aq.)+H_2(g)

When 0.025 moles of sodium is reacted, the heat released by the reaction is 4.52 kJ

So, when 2 moles of sodium will react, the heat released by the reaction will be = \frac{4.52}{0.025}\times 2=361.6kJ

Hence, the enthalpy change of the reaction is -361.6 kJ
